Litigation

Curwens has one of the strongest litigation departments in North London and Hertfordshire, operating from the network of Curwens offices in the Lea Valley, dealing with general civil and commercial litigation, family law and crime.

Our Litigation team covers all areas of civil and commercial litigation and in particular has experts dealing with company disputes, personal injury and medical negligence, landlord and tenant disputes, employment, debt collection and professional negligence. We can also help you resolve disputes or claims based on contract, intellectual property, insolvency, damage to property or reputation. Our aim is to resolve the matter as quickly, fairly and inexpensively as we can, keeping the costs proportionate to the anticipated outcome.
 
Whether we are advising you as the claimant or defendant, we will prepare a realistic appraisal of your situation, its strengths and weaknesses, the cost implications and likely outcome of litigation. We will advise you on the chances of success, the cost and the possible value of your claim. We can negotiate on your behalf and if necessary commence or defend proceedings whether in the High Court, County Court or by arbitration. Our personal injury team includes members of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers.
